For two days in a row, when I start Firefox (29.0.1), Avast anti-virus (free version, up to date) has popped up and told me that Classic Toolbar Button add-on is untrusted (or unsafe or whatever). If I click the more button (or whatever it was) in that Avast window, it gives me an option to let Avast remove all add-ons from my browser (which I have not done, because duh).

Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea what is going on? What can I do to get Avast to stop complaining about Classic Toolbar Buttons?

Thanks.

Avast may think that its thread. Some times it happen.

Add the Firefox and Firefox Extension in the Exception list.

If you still have issues, you should contact the Avast support site.

There is a support page for that add-on over here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=2447747

As long as you installed that add-on from the official Add-ons website - here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cstbb/ - I wouldn't think there would be a problem with that add-on. AMO inspects every add-on and that developer has a number of add-ons and is "trusted", IMO.

Do not do it, after I did this it gave an option of Yahoo, or Bing as the only search engines for default. I cancelled then Firefox only comes up a black screen. I re installed firefox but still same black screen, IE, and chrome are ok.

Hi bargaincrusader

Getting a black screen after updating to Firefox 33 can be caused by a problem with hardware acceleration in Firefox. You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver.

Otherwise you can disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

If you can't start Firefox properly then you can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe Mode:

  • On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
  • On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
